"Blame Your Parents" : 54*40, from "Smilin' Buddha Cabaret"

The tune is pretty much like this :

----------------------------------------------------|

----------------------------------------------------|

---5---5---4-------AND (chug chug chuggin')-:-------|

---------------5------------------2-----------------|

-5---3---3----------------5---5---0-----------------|

-------------5------------3---2---------------------|

Main riff "Memory..." chorus

deschooling grind breeds unrest

adult children get depressed

transparent self will always fail

archaic man leaves a trail

subhuman rubbed in parading eyes

libido pastures and the drug-nose highs

horns and hooves quest for death

existential vacuum becomes a rest

memory's lost to pride

puppets all take up slack

single minds won't give it back

unconscious god broadcast fraud

selfish goals defer the cost

tribal order suicide

super-ego suckling genocide

blame your parents' broken image

blame the counter-culture

and the global village

memory's lost to pride

Solo

Freud was wrong he told a lie

it was child abuse and Oedipus should die

he milked the brain's trance-like state

blame your parents

memory's lost to pride

P.S. I could tab "Ocean Pearl" if anyone's interested.
